No matter where you enjoy your game in Scotland, make the most of the many available tasty options to round off your day:

Fish and chips at Anstruther harbour, Fife

Fife is not only recognised as the Home of Golf, it’s also famous for excellent seafood. Many clubs serve-up fine fish dishes, such as The Fayre at Kingsbarns Golf Links which offers seafood platters. For that traditional seaside feel you could reward the completion of the 9-hole at Anstruther Golf Club with a portion of the village’s renowned fish and chips.

Tee-off at Tobermory Golf Course on the Isle of Mull in Argyll and settle down to some delicious local crab at the end of a busy day’s play in restaurants such as at the Mishnish. Back on the mainland at Oban you can pick up fresh seafood from a quaint hut right by the port, and keep a look out as you travel around nearby golf courses for establishments which are part of Scotland’s Seafood Trail.

And don’t forget to look out for places to eat with the Taste our Best logo, which awards establishments for sourcing local ingredients of Scottish provenance and the freshest seasonal produce.
